I think Jay is a good man but I always thought he was in over his head as a coach. The players loved him, but I don't think he develops them to their full potential. I wish him the best, but I think we will always wonder how much he and Joe really knew about the Sandusky mess and why they kept quiet if they knew more.

Oh please, you're the one living in a weird bubble. Obviously he is referring to the crowd control preparations and comparing that to preparing for a football game, it has nothing to do with comparing the crimes to a football game, get over yourself.

I hate to whine about calls after getting blown out, but to me there were several calls that were questionable in the first half, including the crazy unsportsmanlike call and the obvious pass interference on Haplea that wasn't called. It almost makes me wonder if the Big10 didn't want PSU in the first BG10 championship game with this controversial issue hanging over us. Of course, Wisconsin was the better team, but it seemed to me that it was a psychologycial thing, the awful turnovers combined with playing against the refs and a great team just seemed to demoralize everyone. Oh well, next year will be interesting with a new staff.

If this is true, then it is outrageous that it was left out of the report. To me that would be an enormously important piece of the testimony. Something definitely is not adding up here. 2 + 2 does not equal 6!!!

"The Penn State child sex abuse scandal pours cold water in the face of this moral relativism. It helps us see the natural conclusion of unhinging ourselves from moral absolutes."

Wow, this just nails what has been going on in my heart and mind for the past week. This tragic cover-up and crime is the result of decades of political correctness and moral relativism being pushed and enforced on our campuses. We need to wake up and realize that the basic right and wrong common sense that our grandparents had must be brought back to the forefront of our society or it will disintegrate right in front of us.

I have heard everything from the fans should be silent, the fans should boycott the game, the players should boycott the game, the game should be cancelled, the season should be cancelled, big-time college football should be cancelled. I imagine the appropriate response is impossible here, there is too much raw emotion right now.

As a Penn State fan for over 32 years, I am deeply angered, hurt, and saddened by all of this. I wish McQueary had done more, I wish Joe had done more, I wish the administration had done more. But all the wishing in the world can't undo what was done and what wasn't done. There are 9+ victims who have been destroyed and let down by Penn State and the Center County authorities. Joe may have fulfilled his legal obligation, but based on the GJ report he did not fulfill his moral and ethical responsibility as the head of the program and the face of the university.
What do we do now? Well, I think as fans we support the student-athletes that were blindsided by this. It would be a great story for them if they could block out all the negative stuff and finish the year strong, but even if they lose these last few games, they deserve our support for what they've accomplished. And let's just hope that a new administration and coach can rebuild the grand experiment and make PSU a place we can be proud of again. I think as fans we should push for the university to be a leader in protecting children and speaking out against abuse. Let's push for more transparency and more accountability from those in power, at Penn State and all other institutions where children are vulnerable. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families at this time.

You have to be kidding me. You honestly believe that JoePa would have been fired for "violating protocol" and going to the authorities in 2002. Do you live in some kind of fairyland? Give me a break!! This is the most ridiculous post I have ever read on these boards.

Joe, you were not fooled, WE were fooled, by you. We thought you did the right thing even if it was the hard thing to do. You fooled us. You may be a great coach, but I will never think of you as a great man again. If you want me to believe that you didn't know what Sandusky was up to, that 2002 was the first allegation and you didn't understand how bad it was, I cannot believe that. I cannot believe that he was doing these things in YOUR BUILDING for at least 10 years and you knew nothing about it except the one incident, and that one incident should have been enough to move you to do something to stop it. But all you and Spanier did was tell him to stop bringing the kids in. In essence you were telling Jerry, "keep raping your boys, just don't do it here". That is just unconscionable and for that you have lost a lot of respect and the right to define your own legacy.

Wallynut never even got near a PSU practice field. He is a troll that comes around here often pretending to be a former player. The truth is probably he tried to walk-on and Paterno suggested he try the Blue Band.

I think many of them are waiting to see if the rumors are true that Urban Meyer is already lined up to replace Joe. If those rumors prove true, this could be one of the best PSU recruiting classes in recent history.

This has turned into a battle over power, money, and saving face. It is ugly and sickening. Lost in all of this is that at least nine defenseless children were damaged forever. Shame on Penn State, a thorough house cleaning from top to bottom is the least that should happen. I have always loved Penn State, but now I just want to see the whole thing collapse. Maybe something good can rise from the ashes.

How about also when the "We ARE..." cheer starts, there is no answer. That is a way to stay silent to show support for the victims. We should still cheer the team, but the administration and culpable coaches need to know that we are not happy with their silence on this matter.

That is just an inexcusable comment. "It happens all the time, let's just move on??" Where is your sense of decency, humanity?!! You are just as bad as Paterno and the PSU administration who looked the other way all these years.
